Nicolas Caccivio, originally from Biel, Switzerland, was introduced to the piano at a young age in his hometown. At the age of fourteen, he was accepted into the class of young talents of Albert Sidler at the Bern Conservatory. After successfully completing his high school education, he moved to Vienna, where, from 2014, he studied with Prof. Karl Barth at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, earning his Bachelor's degree with honors in 2018. From 2019 to 2023, he studied under the guidance of Filippo Gamba at the Hochschule für Musik in Basel, where he completed both a Master in Music Pedagogy and a Master in Performance with the highest distinction.

As a versatile and active musician, he performs on stage in various ensembles. In addition to his solo concert activities, he co-founded the "Duo Rotonde" in 2019 with cellist Nathan Zürcher. Their collaboration, focused on interpreting sonatas for cello and piano, has been awarded the 3rd prize at the 2023 international competition "Premio Annarosa Taddei" in Rome. Furthermore, Nicolas collaborates with dancer Nicole Berndt-Caccivio in a piano-dance duo, exploring the possibilities of blending contemporary dance performance with classical piano music. With their first production, "META-morphosen: Körper trifft auf Piano" (METAmorphoses: Body Meets Piano), they will be touring nationally and internationally in 2023/2024.
